I have a few bumpers for sale.the corners are 1/2 inch thick and the rest of the bumper is 1/4 inch thick so its nearly indestructible. I can also add some tubing to the front of it for a little extra. the tubing is 1 3/4 inch .120 wall tubing.
The mounts are made of 1/4 inch steel and mount to the unibody in 10 places to distribute and stress the bumper would see.
as for d ring mounts every bumper will come with them, they arent in the pics because this bumper isn't finished.
I have to figure out what im going to do for shipping so if you would like one itll be about a week before i can have one ready to ship until then your more than welcome to pick it up locally. although i would like to know if there is anyone interested in having one shipped to them. im in Hesperia California.
Im asking 200 for a bumper and 250 for a bumper with tubing on it, i can change the tubing to almost anything that you would want
the bumper in the pics isnt finished. i went on vacation then got impatient and posted the thread with these pics lol, itll be painted black and all the welds grinded down when its done
pm me if your interested
thanks for looking

I thought about it a bit and decided the price was a little steep.
200 for a bumper or 250 for a bumper with a stinger, light bar ect is the new price

As far as feed-back, I like it. I think 1/2" is a little thick on the sides but I know you are going for real HD protection. But to save you costs maybe you could bring it back down to like 3/8. Also there isn't anything about d-ring tabs and if they will be availible? Overall though good bumper.

yeah they all have d ring mount i just havnt took the time to put them on there yet.
and its made out of c- channel so it tapers from 1/4 to 1/2 inch in the corners. it only weighs 42 pounds though which i dont think is too bad

I love the tube bumper look it looks mean as hell with a big winch mounted on it.

what do you think of the rustys bumper? (tube)
im going to make one similar to theirs and see how it sells
(without the 400 dollar price tag though)

I like the beefy look of the one for the JK better than the one for th XJ. But the beefyness would all just depend on the size of the tube. I will find the one i really like and post it.
